A question, if I may.

In you eyes, what is the job of an ordained minister?


Better to ask what they are NOT

First of all, using a tax exempt status to promote a
political action advocacy as an official of a church.


Why would this be wrong, in a moral sense?


Using my money against me?

There is a straight line from LBJ and Viet Nam to today. The straight

Republicans favor it for those reasons.
Where does it say that taxers must be "progressive"?

Where does it say that the poorest Americans must bear the greatest

The don't, and wouldn't.

Perhaps the wealthiest people should simply not have to pay taxes

Soumay Nonay,

Yes a 'pure' Flax Sales Tax System is Phony-Baloney
and lets the Rich and Wealthy Escape Their Fair Share
of Taxes [.]

That's Why FLAT TAX PLUS Works For All : While a
Flat Tax Only -sucks- and Socks It To the Poor and
the Middle Class.

Under a Flat Tax PLUS System :
* Average American "The 90%ers"
Pay As You Spend Via a National Sales Tax
** YES 90% PAY NO TAXES and File No Tax Forms.

PLUS # 1 - Which in-fact Taxes the Chinese Made Product
at an Equal Rate as the American Made Product.

PLUS # 2 - High Income Americans "The 10%ers" with
Incomes above $250K
1st - They Pay the same National Sales Tax as Everyone
Else on Everything.
2nd - Plus They Pay a Flat Tax on All Income above $250K
with No Deductions. This Second Tier Gross Income Tax can
be at Any Multiple above Two (2X) of the National Sales Tax.

Example : A National Sales Tax of 17% results in at least
a 34% Income Flat Tax Tax for High Income Americans
with Incomes above $250K.

Lowering the National Taxes means reducing both down to :
National Sales Tax of 16% = 32% Income Flat Tax Tax
National Sales Tax of 13% = 26% Income Flat Tax Tax
National Sales Tax of 10% = 20% Income Flat Tax Tax

As far as hard news goes, please provide 2 examples of NPR manipulating
coverage to promote a person or position. If this practice is as
rampant as you claim it is this should not be difficult.

I have the same opinion as DxAce but it depends on the program. As far
as I'm concerned the programming runs from center left to far left.
That doesn't stop me from listening as it can be entertaining to hear
commentators twisting logic so as to not offend liberal left
sensitivities while maintaining the appearance of being unbiased.

That's what I thought. You hear facts and they make the people you
like look bad so therefore the facts are biased.

My Dad, a John Bircher Minuteman uber-right winger only listened to
NPR news, because of its objectivity.


I have the same opinion as DxAce but it depends on the program. As far
as I'm concerned the programming runs from center left to far left.
That doesn't stop me from listening as it can be entertaining to hear
commentators twisting logic so as to not offend liberal left
sensitivities while maintaining the appearance of being unbiased.


Exactly what they do. As you say, it's interesting and entertaining to listen to
their gymnastics. Heck, there should be an Olympic event for those folks.

Your Dad was confused. His genes were passed on to you. You are confused as well.

Like you, he probably woke up every morning retarded too.


At least he could stay on subject, and when challenged could produce

Tavis Smiley is on PBS, not NPR. The same PBS that runs the McLaughlin
Group and Tony Brown's Journal, Tucker Carlson, Bill Bennet, etc.

Rush Limbaugh is a clown. He doesn't represent any valid political
viewpoint and would screw-up any program he was on.

Once again, NPR is radio. You do not see people on the radio.

The subject is bias in NPR's news coverage. Which you cannot give two
examples thereof.

The Separation of Church and State in America Today.,
 
It is not Unique to America, The Nazi party under Hitler
and the Japanese under hirohito declared they too were doing GOD'S bidding
and had GOD's Authority.
Jesus said we are pilgrims and strangers, yjat have no continueing City
but nobody ever claimed that republicans ever understood just what in
the heck Jesus was talking about,

The claim was that Robertson, Falwell and Dobson have
claimed that Republicans have the corner on Christianity.
You are again dishonestly trying to reframe what was said..
From earlier in the thread:
Soumay Nonay wrote:

"I've been told the Republican Party has exclusive franchise
on Christianity; it is easier for a camel to pass through
the eye of a needle than a non-Republican to enter the Kingdom
of God."
So you don't agree with the observation that Robertson, Falwell
and Dobson's alleged "churches" are predominantly involved in
politics, particularly the Republican party?

How quaint..
May I once again suggest that yo learn to read?
No.. May I again suggest that "yo" learn to proof-read?
Point taken.
Good.. You've made several typos which I could almost
qualify as Freudian Slips in the past 72 hours..

your understanding of the quote I provided is completely wrong.
Nope, the context which you're trying to misrepresent that quote
with is lacking a few details that I find amusing..

--And typical of a right-wing zealot..
From what I see, you are making excuses.

No, you're the one making excuses, David. You've again
deliberately tried to 'reframe' this discussion to suit your
opinion, rather than openly discussing how the churches led by
Dobson, Falwell and Robertson (eg "Moral Majority", "religious
right") have violated the separation of church and state..
How can a provate entity, which has zero legal authority,
violate the constitution?


It's not a "provate entity", David..

Focus on the Family is a multi-media empire now..

You're even blindly assuming that these 'religious' figures
haven't been trying to build themselves 'empires' that have
attempted to force the Republican party candidates to accept
some of Dobson, Robertson, et al's religious agenda..
In truth, I am absolutely convinced that Robertson and Falwell
would like to build a religious empire, with them in charge.


And so, you think that they haven't? How did you conclude that?


Perhaps I should have been more explicit.

I believe that these men, and others like them would like to return to
the days when the temporal government was subservient to the Church,
and they would like to be the one in charge of the Church.

In Dobson's case, I am a little more uncertain.


Henh! Heisenberg didn't come into play here, right?

If you're going to quibble those facts, then you're not only
being dishonest with me, you're being dishonest with yourself..
The original claim was not that these men are building empires,
but that the Republicans had the corner on Christianity,


Ask yourself this.. How many non-christians are involved
in the Republican party? Are they a majority, or a minority..


From what I have seen, non-Christians are a majority of both parties.
